I love syntrax nectars. And a few generic vanilla and chocolate ones from target and Wal-Mart mixed in my morning coffee! 

For ready made,  Pure Protein isn't too bad.

I also can't stand the film that the protein shakes leave in my mouth, and at only three weeks out, this is a huge struggle for me. I found that there are other types of protein, and I switched to the egg white protein in vanilla. It doesn't leave the film, but it uses stevia sweetener, and that is a little much for me. As soon as I can add fruit back in, I'm sure it will be awesome with a little banana. There is also soy and plant protein at GNC, but I haven't tried those yet. As far as the whey drinks, I find that Premier gives me the most bang for my buck. 30 grams of protein that I pretty much choke down. I find that strawberry is the easiest to tolerate.

I love Syntrax Nectar in Roadside Lemonade and Lemon Iced Tea. They're more like juice than a thick shake. There are other flavors available, too.

I use About Time protein powders, the chocolate and mocha mint are quite good in coffee or mixed with whatever milk you prefer. They are NOT overly sweet and there is no aftertaste or funky mouthfeel like you can get with some RTD shakes, and they mix up easily in a blender bottle. I did not care for the banana and birthday cake flavors, but my husband didn't mind them.

I recently tried Protein Wealth from Nashua Nutrition in Chocolate Cherry. I think it is VERY tasty! I mix one pouch with a cup (25 cals) of Cashew Milk in a blender bottle for a more liquid drink, or with seven ice cubes n a blender for a really nice thick shake. One pouch has 85 calories, 5 carbs and 15 protein.http://www.nashuanutrition.com/store/smoothies/protein-wealth-fruit-smoothie-cherry-chocolate-7-box.html

Have you tried the protein ice cream from the eggface website? It's turned me from a protein shake hater to an "I get to have ice cream!!!!" Kind of gal. I use syntrax matrix vanilla and chocolate and then add sf syrups from davinci or toriani

i also love to have protein coffee which is just protein, a shot of sf toriani mixed with a bit of water or milk of choice and then hot coffee stirred in

noth have worked wonders for my protein needs and use about 100 calories

Premier protein chocolate.  For me strawberry is too artificial tasting and vanilla too sweet.  I haven't tired of the chocolate and drink it every day.

Unjury Chocolate Splendor mixed with almond milk - I drink it nearly every day.  I have a low tolerance for weird tastes and smells.  This passes both those tests.  You can order single packet samples at http://www.unjury.com/
